Your use of this website constitutes your agreement to all such terms and conditions without modification. By accessing or using this website, you agree that the Terms of Use then in force shall apply. Any rights not expressly granted herein are reserved. Please read these Terms of Use carefully, as they contain important information about limitations of liability and resolution of disputes through an arbitration procedure, rather than in court.

H4H licenses the booking engine technology from Alliance to be used on the website subject to the terms of agreement between Alliance and H4H. Some of the static content and rates on this site are owned and managed by third party providers and distributors, collectively referred to as Suppliers.

Reservation Types

Prepaid Reservation - Paid online at the time of booking

You agree that your credit card will be charged for the full cost of your reservation upon submitting your reservation request. The cost of your reservation is the total of the room(s), plus an additional amount for the tax recovery charges and service fees (if applicable). The tax recovery charge is assessed to recover the amount we pay to the property in connection with your reservation for sales and use, occupancy, room tax, excise tax, value added and other similar taxes etc., and the balance of the additional amount is a fee we charge in connection with the handling of your reservation. We are not the vendor collecting and remitting said tax to the applicable tax authorities. The vendors bill all applicable taxes to us and we remit such tax directly to the vendor. We are not a co-vendor associated with the vendor with whom we book or reserve our customer's travel arrangements. Taxability and the appropriate tax rate vary greatly by location. Our actual tax cost paid to the vendor may vary from the tax recovery charge, depending upon the rates, taxability, etc. in effect at the time of the actual use of the property, automobile, etc. by our customer. There may be restrictions on cancellations of a Prepaid Reservation, including non-refundability, cancellation fees, change fees, or the hotel may not provide for . You agree to pay any cancellation fees that you incur.

Pay on Arrival - Payment is secured by the property upon your arrival

The total room charges plus tax and incidentals are secured by the property upon your arrival, and charged by the property upon your departure. Some properties may charge a deposit in advance of your arrival. A Pay on Arrival reservation may require a service fee to obtain the advertised rates. This service fee may range from $0.00 to $10.00 (USD) per room/per night. The service fee is non-refundable and will be charged when you place your reservation. The service fee will appear on your credit card statement under Hotel Accommodations.

Social Component of Reservation

Because H4H integrates a socially responsible component into each reservation booked through this website, you are agreeing that $1 from the hotel and $1 from H4H may be contributed to a 501(c)(3) charity. Upon checkout, you might see language regarding these fees

Relationship

The relationship between the travel vendors supplying services (Suppliers), H4H, and you will be that of a rooms provider, broker, and customer respectively, and none of the parties listed or any of our respective officers, agents or employees will be held or construed to be partners, joint ventures, fiduciaries, employees or agents of the other.

Refusal of Service

H4H reserves the right to refuse service to anyone at our sole discretion so long as our refusal to provide service does not violate any applicable Federal or State Law.

Termination of Site

H4H reserves the right to terminate the website and cancel the service provided by the website at any time for any reason or no reason at all.

Customer Changes and Cancellations

You may cancel or change your Prepaid Reservation unless otherwise stated in the specific terms associated with the inventory you agree to purchase. Some cancellations or room-night reductions may result in a $10 (USD) per room, per night service fee. In addition, if you cancel or change your reservation after the cancellation policy period applicable to the hotel and room type you reserved, you may be subject to a charge of one-night's room rate, tax recovery charges and service fees or greater penalties based on the terms of your reservation. Refunds may or may not be made for no-shows or early checkouts. See the room rate cancellation policies and other terms and conditions for complete details. You agree to pay any cancellation or change fee that you incur. You agree to abide by the terms and conditions and cancellation policies imposed with respect to any completed reservation. Please review the terms and conditions associated with your reservation!

Bank and Credit Card Fees

Some banks and credit card impose fees for international transactions. If you are making a booking from outside the United States, the bank or credit card may convert your home currency into local currency and charge you a conversion fee. If this is the case, the amount shown on your credit or bank card statement may be in your local currency and so therefore a different amount shown on the website. The exchange rate and conversion fee are solely determined by your bank on the day that the transaction is processed. H4H has no ability to dictate these fees.


Promotions and Discounts

All promotions and discounts, including but not limited to promotional codes, group buying codes, price match codes, personal promotional codes, membership based discounts, and other discounts applied by the user on the Site, herein referred to as “Promotional Offers”, are not combinable at any time. Promotional Offers must be entered into the booking process at the time of purchase to be considered valid. H4H has the right to deny the use of a Promotional Offer.

If you received your Promotional Offer through a membership program, H4H reserves the right to terminate your membership if you act fraudulently or use the Promotional Offer obtained through the membership program in a way that does not comply with these terms and conditions, or any federal or state laws, regulations, statutes or ordinances. If your membership is terminated, you may lose all benefits associated with your membership. If we believe that you violated the law, we may also take appropriate administrative and/or legal action against you, including criminal prosecution if necessary.

You cannot sell or transfer your Promotional Offer, or combine them with another person’s Promotional Offer. Any benefits from the Promotional Offer are not transferrable under any circumstance, including death, divorce, or operation of law.

Promotional Offer prices are available on selected hotels and on selected dates only. The Promotional Offer price will only be displayed when applicable to your hotel search. No other discounts may be applied to a Promotional Offer price. You will recognize Promotional Offer pricing where the original nightly rate of a hotel room has been struck-out and the discounted Promotional Offer pricing is listed instead. Promotional Offer pricing is subject to change at any time; however, any changes made to the Promotional Offer pricing will not affect bookings already accepted by H4H.

The Promotional Offer and Promotional Offer pricing are void where prohibited by law. Our failure to enforce any provision in these terms and conditions shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other provision.

Our decision on all questions or disputes regarding the Promotional Offer and Promotional Offer pricing is final.
